The Women’s NCAA championship game had better ratings than the NBA supposedly
Nope.
However it was close.
2022 NBA Finals 12.4 Million.
2023 Women’s NCAA 9.4 Million.
As a Celtics fan, I was over the Lakers in the 60’s. Ha ha.
When you are too PC for Phil Jackson you have a problem.
Good point.
I do not watch basketball as the players are too tall....
I played softball against Jackson once, in Grand Forks. I knew who he was, but didn’t recognize him, till others guys told me it was Phil Jackson.
You could tell it was him as he was bouncing the softball like a basketball...
About the same for me. Jordan Era was great. LeBron sucks.
It’s a shame that I have a collection of Lakers jerseys and stuff I refuse to wear now because of a few selfish players.
I have a signed Kobe jersey that I got yrs ago from a lady who knew him also have an horry jersey and two Shaq jerseys..will never get a lebron jersey I just can’t stand him but he’s a laker so it is what it is
After the Lakers let me down allowing La Bran and others make fools of the franchise I’ve switched my allegiance to LA Kings hockey, and of course my lifelong first love, the Dodgers.
Go Kings Go!
